maybe.  I didn't dig into it at all.

here are my reports:

https://launchpad.net/products/partconf/+bug/31258 - can't install dapper to LV

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/31435 - installer allows /boot to be 
on a raid or LV volume, which grub doesn't support

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/32775 - installed raid ok, won't boot

boot over lan - instead of the boot program being loaded from a floppy, HD or 
USB, it is loaded from a tftp server by the nic.
